Apple Music Home Session: Springbok Nude Girls

Apple Music Home Session: Springbok Nude Girls

“We have many favourite Nude Girls songs,” the band’s leader, Arno Carstens, tells Apple Music. “But ‘Blue Eyes’ and ‘Genie’ solidified our future in South African music and allowed us the fortitude of making a living.” Those two tracks may have arrived in the late ’90s—at the height of their initial wave of alt-rock success and just before their 2001 hiatus—but these soulful reinventions make them feel like fresh releases. Rounding off the band’s Apple Music Home Session is a cover of “December African Rain” by Johnny Clegg. “He’s been a legend within the historical relevance of South African music for as long as we can remember,” Carstens says. “It seemed fitting to honour his legacy in such a special way.”
